Miami Dolphins Friday report: Dimitri Patterson out; is this a good time to catch Baltimore Ravens?

CB Dimitri Patterson was ruled out for the fourth consecutive game by the Dolphins on Friday.
Despite playing only the opener against Cleveland, Patterson remains the Dolphins’ leader in interceptions with two. Nolan Carroll, his replacement, has one interception and 13 tackles.
The Dolphins listed as questionable receiver Brandon Gibson (ankle), safety Don Jones (elbow), linebacker Jason Trusnik (ribs) and defensive end Cameron Wake (knee), all of whom participated in practice on a limited basis Friday.
Listed as probable are Carroll (ankle), safety Chris Clemons (glute), linebacker Dannell Ellerbe (knee), linebacker Jonathan Freeny (shoulder), linebacker Koa Misi (shoulder) and defensive tackle Paul Soliai (knee), all of whom fully practiced.
The Ravens listed defensive tackle Terrence Cody (knee) and center Ryan Jenson (foot) as doubtful.
Questionable for the Ravens: LB Arthur Brown (shoulder), WR Marlon Brown (thigh), RB Shaun Draughn (ankle), WR Jacoby Jones (knee), LB Albert McClellan (shoulder), DT Marcus Spears (knee), WR Brandon Stokley (thigh), WR Deonte Thompson of Glades Central (head) and CB Lardarius Webb (thigh). McClellan, Spears and Stokley did not practice. The others were limited in practice.
The Ravens are coming off a 23-20 loss to Buffalo in which Joe Flacco threw five interceptions.
“They’ve had a lot of turnover, a lot of change,” Dolphins guard Richie Incognito said. “They’re looking for some continuity right now. At 2-2, they’re still trying to find their rhythm, so I think we’re catching them at the right time.”
In 27 regular-season games following a loss, Flacco has completed 64.2 percent of his passes for 6,508 yards, 40 TDs and 15 interceptions for a 95.2 rating. Most importantly, he’s 20-7 in those games.
“The thing about Joe that is great is that he doesn’t get flustered,” assistant GM Eric DeCosta said. “He may have a bad quarter, he may have a bad half, he may have a bad game. But he’s going to come back and play better every single time.”

Thigpen is caught getting caught: Marcus Thigpen caught a short pass from Ryan Tannehill and turned it into a 50-yard gain in the second quarter against the Saints.
It’s what Thigpen didn’t do that caught teammates’ attention. He didn’t score, getting caught from behind by safety Rafael Bush at the New Orleans’ 7-yard line. Two plays later, Lamar Miller ran for a 5-yard touchdown, but that didn’t spare Thigpen from teammates’ ribbing.
“They said it looked like I slowed down,” said Thigpen, who admitted sneaking a glance at the JumboTron but still not realizing Bush was that close to him. “Lamar Miller is picking on me the most because it happened to him.”

Kudos for Odrick: DT Jared Odrick, who celebrates sacks with a Pee-wee Herman dance, got a congratulatory tweet from Herman himself.
“I like your style, Odrick!” Herman tweeted to Odrick. “Smooth moves!”
Odrick: “Hopefully I’ll get another tweet like that after this game Sunday.”
